My grandmother died in 2005. She did not own a computer. I think she could have mastered some computer skills, but she had plenty of interests and activities and friends to keep her engaged in the world. She wrote things down, not fictional stories but events of her life, both past and present. After she died, I was given the honor of keeping some of her writings. I thought starting a blog with them might be fun. I hope readers will find it enjoyable. Thanks for stopping by.

Judy Garland extravaganza
June 8, 2002: Started totaling doctor and medication bills for Homestead Exemption. Mitch and Anna here in evening. Mary brought a good hamburger and pasta dish.
June 9, 2002: Finished the search for the bills. Greta called in a.m. Nancy came in late afternoon. She brought Subway sandwiches. I showered and we played Rummikub.
June 10, 2002: Watched several Judy Garland shows. Played Seven-Up in evening.
Well . . . not much there to work with. I wonder if Grandma stayed up until 2 or 3 in the morning watching Judy Garland. I know those movie marathons can suck you in and then 'poof!' it is several hours and missed meals later. My favorite Judy Garland movie is "A Star Is Born", but I admit to not having seen very many of hers.
There's a TV in the photo, but it certainly was not the one Grandma was using. (I don't think I can bend like that anymore. At least not while smiling, that's for sure.)
